RW> RW> TW>> Having FUN again Roy. YOU knew what I meant.   
      
   RW> RW>> I would expect you to say what you mean. What you said could have   
   RW> RW>> thrown a wannabe HAM off the track, leading to an expectation of   
   RW> RW>> having a license in hand after spending 9 hours testing. That isn't   
   RW> RW>> the case.   
      
   RW> TW> Checket out Roy. YOU can operate as soon as the Passing of the exam   
   RW> TW> is Registered with the FCC by the Examiner, which can be done over   
   RW> TW> the internet. If the timing is just right(IF the examiner submits the   
   RW> TW> data to the FCC after the session) Some have found their name in the   
   RW> TW> FCC data base in two days. The licence itself takes two weeks or so   
   RW> TW> to arrive.   
      
   RW> TW> So picking the Nits it is effectively walking out of the exam with a   
   RW> TW> licence. Yuo jsut have to hold off until it is in the FCC data base   
   RW> TW> before transmitting. BUT you are Efectively Licenced   
      
   RW>Relaxing the former rules so that CBers can be licensed isn't what I call   
   RW>progress.   
      
   That is a Totally Seperate ISSUE and really not connected.   
   The CERT Teams are the ones responsable for the "Mindless Memorization"   
   sessions that are doing that.   
   And I suspect the REACT people like them also.
